This jute rug came a few days ago. Love it. Much better than I imagined in terms of color and structure. Wasn't sure what "bleached" meant b/c on my monitor the color looks rather beige--like a traditional jute color. The color is an ivory, which works great with my linen/ivory upholstery. Structurally, it's woven tightly and it's thicker than I thought it would be (again great!). This is not at all "grassy" or thin--it's great floor covering. Also: no smells at all. Very happy with this purchase...and it was on sale--couldn't beat it.

Use this jute rug to protect your floors and keep mud and dirt from being tracked into your home. The handwoven natural fibers of the rug soak up water that may be on shoes, and the bleached light brown hue and traditional appearance of the rug pairs well with any decor. With fringed ends and neutral coloring, this natural fiber rug lends a casual feel to almost any space. Made from fully renewable resources, it is also environmentally friendly. It comes in a variety of sizes and in rectangular or round shapes. Use a non-skid pad on smooth floors to prevent the rug from sliding.

Tip: We recommend the use of a non-skid pad to keep the rug in place on smooth surfaces.

This jute rug came a few days ago. Love it. Much better than I imagined in terms of color and structure. Wasn't sure what "bleached" meant b/c on my monitor the color looks rather beige--like a traditional jute color. The color is an ivory, which works great with my linen/ivory upholstery.

Drove myself nuts reading rugs and different reviews...and natural fiber vs everything else vs shedding. Finally decided to take the plunge on this. I had an area in mind for this but I had several back up plans if I didn't like it or it shed too much. The 8x8 didn't look right in the room it was intended for so I put in my living room. Ok, so the review part. Rug is thin..which is good. I'm giving 4 stars because looking back I guess I wanted something thicker..that's probably unfair because I thought moving those thick heavy rugs would be difficult. Let me tell you, this thing is very soft. I was shocked right away and that was a big concern. The bleached rug is very light and looks pretty much identical to the pics. Very very little to no shedding so far. I've read bad reviews probably from those who haven't done their homework on area rugs. So overall the price you can't beat, little to no shedding, my dog loves it, very versatile, its reversible. Very happy I went with jute

After much deliberation and reading many reviews, I decided on this rug - So glad I did. We live in a townhouse with a giant living room, and this rug added just the right amount of coverage and charm. Our house is a mix of upholstery, leather, metal, seagrass and wood - so this was the perfect "toned down accent" In addition I have two bulldog puppies that get confused about going to the bathroom outside - rarely, but it happens - I've gotten two urine spots since I put the rug down about a month ago - I cleaned them immeadiately with spot shot and you can't tell where they are - which is nice. Nor can you see footprints, paw prints and the likes. When I vacuum, I just turn off the brush setting and it's great. If there are loose strands, I just clip them.
I have only had it a month but it's perfect for the rustic, cozy look - nothing formal about it!
If you're looking for a well made, high traffic, casual "beachy" jute rug - this is it. I saw one seriously close to it at Restoration Hardware for over 1K - it didn't have the tassels but the look was very close.
I didn't notice any smell, it's pretty even for a jute rug - It came in just a few days - The rug pad is a necessity - just remember if you clean up any messes, not to forget to clean the rug pad as well...
If we ever buy a vacation home, I'm getting another one.
Thanks and Happy Shopping!

I LOVE! this rug!!! It's a true jute rug. If you've seen a jute rug, you know what to expect. It's a fairly chunky weave -- it's not seagrass sisal, which is a narrower fiber. It is rustic-y, but it is NOT too rustic to go in a contemporary/transitional/cottage-y formal living room (unless you're going for more of the Blue-haired Grande Dame Floral Aubusson decor style -- I wouldn't pair it with that LOL). It does need a pad underneath because it slides otherwise. Rugs this large are hard to find -- and especially at this price point. It is a pale jute, but it is NOT flaxen-colored -- more like a pale seagrass sisal hue. I'd buy one again in a heartbeat.

I really like the looks of this rug, and for this size rug the price was excellent. When I first unrolled it the rug had a straw-like smell. Not a bad smell, really not objectionable, and a light enough smell so that after you were in the room for a while you got used to it. I figured the smell would go away pretty soon. But I've now had the rug going on two months, and when I enter the room I still smell the rug--a straw smell. I really don't want to smell the rug. I guess I'll try putting something on the rug to maybe replace the straw smell with some other smell, but I'd prefer to smell nothing when I enter the room. If I had known the rug would continue to smell I would have more than likely sent it back. If it weren't for the smell, I would have given the rug 5 stars. So my conclusion is that if you don't mind a slight straw smell in your room, the rug is a great deal.

The online reviews convinced me to order this and I'm glad I did. I got the largest size, 10 x 14--which for some reason is less expensive than the 9 x 12--and it is thick, smooth, and lovely. The rug has no odor whatsoever. The bleached color is not too light, and in fact I it's clear that the natural would have been too brown in the room. The fringe that was rolled to the outside in the package is perfect, while the fringe that was crunched on the inside of the rug roll looks less than wonderful. I am hopeful that it will straighten out in time. There is also a noticeable crease down the middle where it was folded; again, I hope this will resolve. You cannot beat the price for a rug this size--the FedEx shipment says it weighs 100+ pounds and I believe it. There is nothing flimsy about this. If you get the largest size, make sure you have help getting it into the house!
To top it off, the rug arrived from Georgia to the NYmetro area three days after I ordered it.

Been looking a while for a comfy jute rug for our beach house. Couldn't beat the reviews (& price) on this one. So nervous about ordering such a big rug online when I know I'm responsible for return shipping cost if I don't like it :(
Fingers Crossed... hope I'm not disappointed!!

Hello randaff, no, this rug is not treated with stain protectors or fire retardants. It has been bleached to create the color, but we do not use any harmful chemicals in this process. It is safe for households with children and pets. This rug is recommended for use in dry areas since it is constructed with natural fibers. Thank you for checking with us.

How do you clean this product? Can it be machine washed? I had a rug similar to this that could be washed. It was the best rug as I have large dogs and it kept the floors cleaner. I used it for years until I wore it slap out.
Thanks

Hello lityear, This rug has received excellent reviews! To clean this product, it is recommended to vacuum it regularly, on a low power setting and vacuuming at different angles. Spills should be blotted to absorb as much of the spill as possible. Then for spot cleaning, use small amounts of water, but do not saturate the rug. If applying cleaning solvents, test a small area first. For stubborn stains, use a professional cleaning services that specializes in rugs and do not dry clean. I hope this information helps. Thanks for shopping with us.

I just had the 10 X 13'6 rug delivered two weeks ago. Extremely heavy. I could not lift it alone and my husband struggled with it. Shipping manifest said 136 pounds and while it was probably not that heavy, I think it is at least 75 pounds. This is a lovely, thick rug.

It is oversized as it is quite big, even folded and rolled. I could lift it alone but I struggled with it..I am 5 feet and weigh about 130 and it was all I could do to drag it into my home as the delivery man left it on my covered porch.

I am looking at the bleached rug and wondering about the color...is it more of a cream or light tan? I have off white couches and am looking for a contrast...but nothing too gold.
Any personal pictures of this rug would be helpful.

Hello midgo249, we appreciate your inquiry. This rug comes folded and rolled. If creases are a concern, that will dissipate in a few days. We hope this information has been helpful. Thank you for shopping with us. Have a great day!
